D&D 5E (IC) Scourge of Daggerford

[FitzTheRuke]

Tommi slung a stone at the orc sniper, but the lad was in a lot of pain from his arrow-wound and the stone went wide. To help his friend, Dandin sent a magical lullaby that caused the archer to fall asleep, nearly slumping off of the cliff. Tommi slumped against a bush to catch his breath.

Through the hole in the rocks, Escella had a perfect view of the orog as it threatened Dandin. She struck it hard with a burst of chaos magic, and it cussed, shaking its head. Still, it raised its axe, about to bring it down on the halfling, when Dandin suggested, "Look behind you!"

The orog turned as Angis rushed foward, ready to give it a go. The axe dropped, but the dwarf was better able to stand against it.

Sir Darfin and his guards shuffled away to give Vairar room as the elf warrior-cleric pierced the ogre's side with his spear. A large quarrel zoomed between them from the wagon, narrowly missing both as the cleric and the ogress squared off. She scratched him with her wrist-claws and the cleric burst into a mess of lightning that burned the brute. She cursed at him while wiping her brow and said,

Spoiler: orcish

"I see whatcher are, now: A slave. A no-good slave who shud knowiz place."

In the force-cage, the bear and the claw-shaman were alone. The shaman attempted to get the bear to climb over the invisible wall, but was hasty in his actions. The bear swatted and bit at him, still annoyed at being burnt and free of the collar. The shaman was forced to retreat and to heal himself as the bear grunted obstinately.

The horses could smell the bear, and they shied, snorting. Titus wanted to get into the fight, but it was important that he held the horses to keep the wagon safe and steady while Lionel reloaded the mounted crossbow.

In the sky overhead, Morwen the winged cat and ORB5 the little round construct flew around each other in greeting before flying off in different directions.

OOC: Escella's spells should be 3/4 1/2. She cast the chaos bolt at 2nd level.

Escella's victory dance is cut short as the hulking figure of the ogre comes into view. "Crap," she says. "When does this become insanity?" She wonders as her eldritch blast flies wide of the ogre.

Eldritch blast (At the Ogre).: 1D20+5 = [2]+5 = 7
1D10 = [3] = 3 I guess I only get one round of glory.

 

[Kobold Stew]

Tommi is frurstrated that he has been unable to help as much as he has wanted. But he is going to get that sniper, even if he doesn't know the sniper is currently asleep.

He scrambles over the rocks and makes his way to the top of the cliff.

OOC: Climb to the sniper. Move+Bonus = 60' move = 30' climb. If it's non-controversial, he makes it to the top. Action: slit the sleeping sniper's throat.

 

[gargoyleking]

He saw the axe coming down, Angis was coming and he pointed in a desperate attempt to distract the Orog. And it worked? The swing missed him by a hair. He couldn't believe it. Then it turned away to srike at Angis. Dandin flicked his wrist, bringing Suren's call back to it's weapon form and he trued to thrust. Unfortunately, he was in too much pain, and it foiled his attack.

"Okay, come on Dandin, there's still a lot to do here. Don't let it get to you..."

Feeling slightly better, he raised his sword once more, but he couldn't think of any more witty comments.

OOC: everything is in orcish

Vairar takes the hit and sneers.
"I survived orc slavery. I was tortured, burned, maimed. But I live to see all of your kind burnt to ashes! Witness the glory of the Lady of the Winds!"
Vairar heals himself with a word.
"I can take more hits. How many can you take before you fall, mistress?! And how many times can you afford to hit me? I am an elf and proud of it. You think just because we like good living that we're soft. Well, WE ARE NOT!"
He trusts at the ogre again, but this time, in his anger, he broadcasts his intention and target too clearly and she sidesteps easily.
He grins.
"Well played, you won't get me riled up again."
"As long as yon wall is here, you're alone. And nothing you can do will bring it down since that elven lord is out of your reach. You move, I kill you. You attack, my goddess kills you. You can surrender now and live."
Sneer again.
"Slave, eh?!"

Lord Darfin casts again and with the same results. He tried to shoot above Vairar then changed his mind mid-casting and tried to hit between Vairar and the wall...with the result of minor flash and pulse of the magical wall.

Letting out an elven curse, he moves further back, followed by his guards.

@KahlessNestor you don't have the bless anymore. The ogre beat it out of me.

 

[Prickly Pear]

Hold the horses still! shouted Lionel to Titus. My aim is out when it's rocking so much.
The horses were skittish and obviously didn't want to be any closer to the ogress. Titus tried his best to soothe and settle the horses but with limited success. What do you think I'm doing? Titus yelled back. At least Blaze, his warhorse, was well-trained enough to remain calm. Bessie the mule had found a patch of grass that she was munching on.
Just Shoot! Titus continued. How hard can it be to hit an enormous ogre, eh?
Lionel ignored Titus and took aim again. This time it looked as if the quarrel hit its mark.
